NetEase's Marvel Rivals is generating significant buzz ahead of its Season 1 update. Many players are eager to gain early access. This guide explains how to potentially join the select group experiencing the new content early.
How to Potentially Access Marvel Rivals Season 1 Early
The excitement surrounding Season 1 is fueled by ongoing reveals on the game's official social media channels. However, early access has been granted to a select group, leaving many feeling excluded. Here's how you might join them:
The key to early access lies in the game's Creator Community. This program allows approved players early access to updates and information. While it may seem exclusive, anyone can apply. Follow these steps:
- Visit the Creator Hub on the official Marvel Rivals website.
- Locate and complete the application form at the bottom of the page.
- Await a response from NetEase Games.
Important Note: While the application doesn't explicitly request metrics like subscriber counts, the reviewers will likely notice newly created accounts solely for early access. New creators might consider delaying their application.
